A 50-year-old Broomfield man was indicted by a grand jury on Thursday for receiving and possessing of child pornography.

The indictment of Kris Katzenmeyer was sealed pending his arrest, which took place Monday morning without incident, according to a news release issued Tuesday morning by the U.S. Attorney’s Office .

Katzenmeyer appeared in U.S. District Court in Denver on Monday afternoon. The government has asked he be held without bond and a hearing on that request is set for Thursday.

According to the indictment, Katzenmeyer, a registered sex offender, received child pornography between Nov. 24, 2006 through April 29, 2011. From May 7, 2010 through Aug. 29, 2012 and on Oct. 23, Katzenmeyer also possessed child pornography that had been shipped across state lines, according to the news release.

Some images were sent through the U.S. mail, according to the release.

Katzenmeyer was living in Broomfield when a search warrant was issued for his home in October, according to Jeff Dorschner, a spokesman for the U.S. Attorney’s Office.

If convicted of receipt of child pornography, he faces five to 20 years in federal prison and a fine of up to $250,000. If convicted of possession of child pornography, he faces up to 10 years in federal prison and a fine of up to $250,000 per count, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.

The U.S. Attorney’s office would not release information about the offense for which Katzenmeyer had to register as a sex offender.

Records from the Colorado Bureau of Investigation do not show Katzenmeyer has been arrested for sex offenses in Colorado.

According to CBI records, Katzenmeyer was last arrested in Colorado in July 2002 in Thornton for misdemeanor harassment.

Katzenmeyer has no previous arrest record in Broomfield, according to Broomfield police spokeswoman Joleen Reefe.
